Judy's mama sent her to market, Ev'ry body bawl out Judy drownded Told her not to linger so she won't forget Ev'ry body bawl out Judy drownded Judy drownded, Judy drownded Wa'yo Judy drownded Judy drownded, Judy drownded Wa'yo Judy drownded Judy took the short cut 'cross the water Ev'ry body bawl out Judy drownded When she look around, the stream had caught her Ev'ry body bawl out Judy drownded Judy drownded, Judy drownded Wa'yo Judy drownded Judy drownded, Judy drownded Wa'yo Judy drownded Judy was carried down the stream, oh Ev'ry body bawl out Judy drownded Takin' her last breath, it did seem, oh Ev'ry body bawl out Judy drownded Judy drownded, Judy drownded Wa'yo Judy drownded Judy drownded, Judy drownded Wa'yo Judy drownded Judy reach out with her hand, oh Ev'ry body bawl out Judy drownded Lucky she grasp a branch on land, oh Ev'ry body bawl out Judy drownded Judy drownded, Judy drownded Wa'yo Judy drownded Judy drownded, Judy drownded Wa'yo Judy drownded So I went up to Judy's mother's shed, Ev'ry body bawl out Judy drownded But Judy no drownded, Judy lie in bed, Ev'ry body bawl out Judy drownded Judy drownded, Judy drownded Wa'yo Judy drownded Judy drownded, Judy drownded Wa'yo Judy drownded
